Nigeria's Iwobi praised despite Arsenal loss to Chelsea in Europa League final

Nigeria and Arsenal forward, Alex Iwobi, scored a consolation goal as his club lost Wednesday’s UEFA Europa League final to fellow English club Chelsea.

Iwobi’s stunning strike earned him praise from fans that were otherwise disappointed by Arsenal’s poor showing that will see them miss out on playing in the elite Champions League for a third consecutive season.

Iwobi legit created 4 goal scoring chances after his goal. Every touch and passes to perfection.

We’ve conceded 4 goals in a European final. Our 350,000 a week playmaker has made less passes than our whole back 4. We’ve had 1 shot on target in 78 minutes and it was from a rare Iwobi wonderstrike. Embarrassing performance. #AFC#UELfinal
